Above the Weeping Dunes, after the initial melee and the heavy price of several unlucky "heroes" being killed or sent flying, the various "heroes" of the Lands Between—who already had some skill and thought highly of themselves—finally calmed down a little.
Then, almost in unison, they put a little more distance between themselves and the close-combat-unstoppable Starscourge General Radahn, and began watching him carefully.
"Ugh..."
"Grr..."
At that moment, the beastlike Starscourge General Radahn wasn't in any hurry to give chase. He simply growled under his breath, holding his Starscourge Greatswords as he rode his skinny horse—whose body wasn't even as thick as one of his thighs—and looked around at the strange enemies surrounding him.
He didn't look afraid or hesitant, though. More likely, there were so many enemies who had appeared all at once that he couldn't keep track of them, and after going so long without a proper fight, he seemed out of practice. He didn't know which one to take out first.
But Radahn soon had no need to agonize over it.
"Charge!"
"Everyone, watch your defenses!"
"And work together!"
"We outnumber him. We can beat him!"
Because, at that moment, a Tarnished suddenly stepped forward, apparently hoping to act as the team's commander.
Then, no one knew what he did, but after gently shaking a bell, he summoned a spirit soldier carrying a shield and spear and had it stand in front of him. He seemed very cautious.
"Raaagh!!"
After identifying the target he ought to attack and eliminate first, Starscourge General Radahn acted decisively. He put away the two Starscourge Greatswords he'd been holding and casually brought out the greatbow on his back, then drew it and nocked an arrow.

Whoosh!
The giant arrow—which looked more like a spear
